Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I was frustrated, insulted & had no answers when I left his office. I have genetic osteoarthritis, which is advanced for my age. I was awaiting hip a replacement & experiencing sciatic pain. I wanted to know if the nerve issue would go away after replacement or if it would be a neurology issue we'd need to tackle post op. Douglas accused me of being depressed & wanted to prescribe depression meds. I was depressed bc I couldn't move and in chronic PAIN! Took 6 weeks to get in & get zero results!
